Files tagged in MC 19 for Windows lose custom tag values in MC 19 for Mac

By the way, in case this helps someone else: I forgot to mention that we tracked down a few mysterious failures of the "Update tags from Library" operation to the fact that, based on discussions on Computer Audiophile about "ticks" in some directly extracted DSF files using SACD_extract, I had extracted the stereo files from the ISOs first as DFF files and converted them to DSF using AudioGate. I hadn't noticed that AudioGate strips commas out of track filenames when it uploads a file (perhaps to enable uploading CSV groups of files?). Several of our test tracks were Bach choral works and Dowland songs which had commas in the names. The MC Libary filename tag came from a multichannel DSF which had been directly extracted and not converted via AudioGate, so it retained the commas. Naturally when I tried updating the file tags of the stereo files from the multichannel files, MC couldn't match the filenames due to the missing commas, so the updates failed. It took a while to spot this. So if you convert using AudioGate, watch out for commas, and restore them manually before you update the tags!
